These jeans will not stretch out over the course of your day. I really like the mid-rise. The dark blue is very nice. I am generally 27-28 in J Brand and Citizens. The 28 fit as I expected. I am 5'3" and I do have the length altered.

I tried the Carlton and the Mandy styles by Citizens. I was looking for ankle length jean for spring. Despite the rise length given in the description, the Mandy had a higher rise without question by about 1-2cm or so. For my figure, the Mandy just looked/fit better. I am on the short side- about 5'3" on a good day. The wash of the Carlton was distressed and "younger" looking with the whiskering. Also, Carlton has shorter inseam. Mandy has longer inseam and needs to be rolled-up. Both are very cute...
For what it is worth, I also tried the white Carlton jeans. The rise on the white Carlton was definitely higher as well.

I really think it is a cute looking sandal. The front strap cut across my foot in a rather unforgiving way. I tried a size up and no go... Between the inflexible sole and cutting action of the front strap, I almost couldn't walk. Nevertheless, it is very cute. Might work for you...

I really like the rubber on the sole. I didn't realize this feature was present until I received the sandal. Walking is easier than with plain leather sole which needs to get "roughed up" so you're not sliding around at first. Fits good and as expected. I am typically between 38-38.5 in a shoe. The 38 fit best. silver is silver. shiny, not at all muted. I am considering getting 2nd pair in another color...
